Speaker Johnson signals strong support for Biden impeachment inquiry

 December 3, 2023

President Joe Biden's impeachment inquiry is about to kick into full gear. 

According to The Hill, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) once again signaled strong support for Biden's impeachment inquiry to move forward.

During an interview over the weekend on Fox News, Johnson said Congress "has a duty" to bring the issue to a full House vote.

Reports indicated that such a vote could happen before Congress breaks for the December recess, setting up the potential for a massive fight.

Support

Johnson supports the House committees investigating Biden and his family members, which has led to what many believe is solid evidence proving that they need to be held accountable.

"The evidence is so clear you cannot look away," Johnson said when asked about the impeachment inquiry situation.

He added, "The Constitution requires the House to follow the truth where it leads. We have a duty to do this. We cannot stop the process."

Last month, Johnson said, "At this stage, our impeachment inquiry has already shown the corrupt conduct of the President’s family, and that he and White House officials have repeatedly lied about his knowledge and involvement in his family’s business activities."

“Now, the appropriate step is to place key witnesses under oath and question them under the penalty of perjury, to fill gaps in the record,”

He's made similar remarks in recent weeks, indicating that Republicans are fully set on moving forward with the impeachment inquiry process.

Social media reacts

Conservatives across the board are also ready for the impeachment inquiry process to take off. Some expressed criticism whether or not the process would elicit real results, or even happen at all.

"I’ll believe it when I see it but I’m praying it happens," one X user wrote.

Another X user wrote, "Sure and by the time they are done with the 'inquiry' his term will be over."

"Johnson must make sure. With the recent expulsion of Santos, there is one less vote to save America from the destruction of Biden," another social media user wrote.
